I disagree that you *have* to use compiler extensions. It takes discipline, but it's possible to write without them. Most often it not compiler extensions, but the need to use a non-standard library that gets me. Standards can't cover every use case, and the C/C++ ones don't really cover enough. Plus, it's not like Ada compilers can't have extensions. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =. bss@iguanasuicide.net ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-' http://iguanasuicide.net/ \_/
